why did they all look so guilty?
and received a response of:
39 Hindered
The Statement of the first hexagram
Gain in the west and south.
No gain in the east and north.
Gain by seeing the great person.
Pure fortune.
The changing lines
The fifth line:
Greatly hindered.
Friends approach.
The sixth line:
Going: hindered.
Coming: enormous fortune.
Gain by seeing the great person.
52 Stilling
The Statement of the second hexagram
One stills one's back
and does not move one's body.
There is movement in one's courtyard,
but one does not see one's people.
No fault.
The Image of the first hexagram
Water on top of the
mountain: hindered.
The noble one
turns inward
to cultivate virtue.
The Image of the second hexagram
Doubled mountains:
stillness.
The noble one
does not consider matters
beyond his position.
